Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion
(Occurrence 0) Who has spoken and it came to pass, unless the Lord decreed it?
(Some words not found in UHB: who? this he/it_had_said and,happen my=master not commanded )
The author uses this rhetorical question to teach that when someone commands something to happen, it will happen only if God has already decreed that it should happen. Alternate translation: “No one has spoken and it came to pass, unless the Lord decreed it.” or “What someone has commanded to happen has never happened unless the Lord decreed it.”
